Technical Information - No specific operating system.This is a free program. It requires the user to register with a valid email address.
Description - This is a great website for students to practice vocabulary. The user can make their own flashcards or find some that are already created. The program allows lists to be imported so the user doesn't have to retype. However, the list I imported was not in the correct format so I had to cut and paste to get the correct format. The program also allows the user to create practice quizzes. This is really good for students who need to see the words or concepts multiple times.
Use - I thought this was a great tool for helping students learn new topics. I will try to use it with my students as they are learning several new lists of words each week. The program allows the user to print a copy of a practice quiz. Teachers could generate these quizzes and use them for formative assessments.
